This reminds me why I don't slashdot anymore. By the fourth comment there's an extensive argument over universal health care. EDIT: irony noted.

- toast76 16y agoDon't worry, before too long the same argument will appear here. Australia has universal health care btw.... just saying :P
- daten 16y agoI don't read Slashdot comments because of the repetitive or off topic jokes that add nothing productive to the conversation.

- pluies 16y agoInterestingly enough, I enjoy Slashdot for exactly that reason (and the occasional insightful comment). I haven't found any other place on the net (yet?) with such witty geek humor.
- prawn 16y agoI gave up Slashdot after a long time because of the predictable jokes, but do miss the genuinely clever ones. If the funny filter could somehow determine the difference between the clever stuff and the memes (or if there were two moderation options to separate them), it might be more useful.
- wahnfrieden 16y agoThere's some way to filter out any posts upmodded as Funny, iirc. I think that would make it much more readable too.
